the threads of all the screws and tighten evenly until the backplate
is snug.

fasteners to 72 in.-lbs. as illustrated in Picture 6.
8. Check between the cylinder head and the backplate for air gaps.
NOTE: A feeler gauge works well for determining the amount of gap, if
any, between the head and the backplate as illustrated in Picture 7.
9. If a gap less than the thickness of a rubber coated washer is
present, torque the breather bolts down 10-12 ft.-lbs. If a gap of
more than the thickness of a rubber coated washer is present,
determine how much and select the appropriate number of
rubber coated washers needed to take up the gap.
10. If more than one rubber coated washer is needed between the
head and backplate, back out the breather bolts and install the
correct number of rubber coated washers.
11. Thread the breather bolts in and finish torque breather bolts to
10-12 ft.-lbs.

head fasteners as illustrated in Picture 8.
13. Apply a drop of 243 blue Loctite® to the threads of each ¼" X 20
flanged head screw and set aside.
14. Hold the filter on the backplate and put the filter top plate on top
of the filter making sure that the word “Down” is facing down and
sitting flat on the filter and locked into the groove as illustrated in
Picture 9.
15. Pass the ¼" X 20 flanged head screws through the plastic top filter
plate, thread in and tighten down evenly until snug and then
